Search query remaster'd?

Postby Nya-chan Production » Thu Jun 04, 2009 4:02 am

Would it be innovative/proper to have the search query (from Super Search) to come out first, and if it throws out error (or maybe noithing as well... optional), to disable the donation page (you know, the donate/donate/proceed one)?

I mean, I have no problems with going over it when I get some results (I know how Org works), but it kinda disturbs me being delayed by it when getting on a page where I'll just find out that the SS gave me nothing and I have to repeat the process (maybe a few times) |:

Yes I agree. Too many times I've been looking for a specific video and it's taken me twice as long as it should.

Bite me. I'm not able to donate, various reasons (mostly my parents).

Then deal with the minor inconvenience that such a choice brings?

Not about to do anything like that. No thanks. I'd rather remain a leech.

Wait how did this turn into a discussion about me donating?

Why do I have a feeling that in every of my topic I have mainly ppl ranting about various things, instead of mods/admins?

Ahh, I know. mods/admins actually work...

Because donation privileges are related to this topic...?

No I meant why'd it become focused on me.

Just because I'm curious... Your parents (or other various reasons) are stopping you from taking a dollar, putting it in an envelope, and mailing it to the donation address? (though since you're in Canada, you'd have to go to a bank or something to get a US dollar)

I say this because I can understand not wanting or being able to mess around with PayPal or credit cards, but the above seems fairly simple.

(Insert standard warning about sending cash through the mail, but $1 is pretty low-risk)

My parents are paranoid about sending money through the mail. We don't have access to a credit card or paypal right now.

You can buy a money order at a bank or post office. My first .org donation, I walked into a post office (in Canada) and just asked them for a US money order. My parents were nowhere to be seen...

Otherwise, hey, if it's functional but takes time, then you can't complain unless you're a donator. If it was non-functional I'd understand, but for the rest - only donators get to gripe, and even then only to a limited extent.

Enough. I'm not going to and that's that, don't try to talk me into it. And anyways I'm done complaining.

Chill out dude. No one is trying to get you to donate. They are just explaining ways someone in your position would be able to do so.

As for this topic, I would like to make it so no nagging messages are presented if there are no results to display but I have a large laundry list of stuff I want to do and this is honestly way down at the bottom. I'm also a little afraid to look at the code for this... : /
